Blue Marlins

It was another cool afternoon for soccer practice today.

Cooper and I kicked the ball back and forth for the entire hour of Reagan's practice

Get the ball!
Getting instruction from the coaches

Ready?

Our Saturday

another Saturday, another busy day!! The day started off with soccer practice for Reagan and then we went to Reagan's school's winter festival ~ fortunately, it was held indoors!

Waiting her turn to kick a goal

KICK

get that ball

Greg kept Cooper entertained by running laps around the playground

silly boy

all that running made Cooper thirsty

Reagan and Emma

Cooper discovered he had an extra pocket for his water bottle

Next, it was time for the Winter Festival to begin. Reagan's first choice of games was the cake walk.

Daddy and Cooper tried to win a cake too

Then, we tried our luck at winning a goldfish

As luck would have it, Cooper won a gold fish and a bowl to put it in

The Lord was showing us favor today, because Reagan was also lucky enough to win a gold fish!

From there, we moved on to the "Nose Pick" game. The kids got to pick their prize out of the nose! (cute, but oh so gross!)

Cooper had to dig deep!

After a few more games and lunch from Chick Fil A, they did the bean bag game (Reagan's picture disappeared, but she played this game twice!)

Cooper got a snake painted on his face

Reagan chose a butterfly ~ pink and purple of course

they both got tattoos

They played ring the bottle

And, finally they went bowling

We had a great time at the winter festival. When we got home, Cooper took a 3 hour nap, Reagan and I watched gymnastics and Greg took a little nap too!

Here are a couple of videos of Reagan's soccer practice.

Another Practice

Today, Reagan had her 2nd practice of the soccer season. Cooper went along with us and played on the playground.

He ran too fast and fell down

Reagan wanted to show Cooper how it was done!

Riding on the firetruck together
One big monkey!

Cooper loved the "space ship"

Working the controls

Blast off!

Love him so much!
